Anyone here order bedding from PB Teen?
Question:I'm looking at two different duvet covers from Pottery Barn Teen. When it says "made from our softest 200-thread-count cotton percale", how soft is it? As soft as microfiber? And how is the quality?
Answers:
I had some sheets from PBKids. They were only 200 count or something, but they were the SOFTEST sheets ever! I never wanted to rotate my bedding. The only issue I had was that they got wrinkly in the wash, but I'm not so anal that I would iron them or anything.
It isn't soft like microfiber. It's like regular cotton sheets, just softer. And the quality is great. Keep your reciept, they have (or at least used to have) a generous return policy. But I don't think you'll need to return them.
To get as soft as microfiber you would have to have at least a 400 thread count. Do you have a Target in your area? They have a really cute line of teen/college bedding that just came out. It looks similar to Pottery Barn at much less $$$.
180 is the minimum thread count for something to be considered percale, so this is just barely above the minimum. You can get nicer for cheaper at Walmart. I've never been impressed with PB linens. They fade horribly, and the stitching is uneven and even missed on seams in some areas.
